Question

Below are isomers of 1,2-di(2-methylpropyl)cyclohexane in conformational structures. Two are cis and two trans. Indicate which is the more stable conformation for the cis and which for the trans, and indicate which of all the conformations is the most stable.

Below are isomers of 1,2-di(2-methylpropyl)cyclohexane in conformational structures. Two are cis and two trans. Indicate which is the more stable conformation for the cis and which for the trans, and indicate which of all the conformations is the most stable. If both conformations of the isomer are equally stable, select both. Select the more stable conformation of cis-1,2-di(2-methylpropyl)cyclohexane. Select the more stable conformation of trans-1.2-di(2-methylpropyl)cyclohexane. Select the most stable conformation overall.

Explanation / Answer

A AND C ARE CIS AND BOTH OF THEM ARE EQUALLY STABLE

B AND D ARE TRANS, AND B IS MORE STABLE.

B IS MOST STABLE AMONG THE FOUR
